Raises Revenue and EBITDA Guidance for Full Year 2022

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Thryv Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:THRY) (“Thryv” or the “Company”), the leading small business software platform, announced that it grew its SaaS revenue 26% year-over-year in the third quarter of 2022 and has raised revenue guidance for full year 2022.

“We are pleased to report a strong third quarter as we continue to make tremendous progress on our strategic priorities,” said Joe Walsh, Chairman and CEO. “Our SaaS revenue growth, up 26% year-over-year, was ahead of our SaaS guidance targets. Subscribers and ARPU both grew at double digits year-over-year. These strides reflect our investment in our product and client success team.”

As a result of a strong third quarter exceeding guidance, Thryv is increasing guidance for full year 2022 SaaS revenue and Marketing Services revenue and Adjusted EBITDA.

“We are transforming the small business sector one business at a time, supporting entrepreneurs as they move their operations to the cloud. We focus on our clients' engagement and usage which drives their loyalty and spend and allows us to deliver on our objectives," Walsh continued. "In support of our goal of international expansion, we recently announced the opening of our regional HQ in Toronto, the hiring of our Canadian sales team and key partnerships with GetinTheLoop and the Canadian Franchise Association. Marie Caron, our international president, is succeeding in making a difference and assisting our clients as we expand across the globe.”

“On a daily basis, our employees are helping small businesses succeed. We view employee experience as strategically important because clients benefit from our employees' commitment. In fact, Thryv was named to Newsweek's America's 100 Most Loved Workplaces for 2022. We are proud our employees feel this way - and in return, it helps our clients have a great experience when they work with us.”

Non-GAAP Measures

Our results included in this press release include Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted Gross Profit, which are not presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only and are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Please refer to the supplemental information presented in the tables below for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net income and Adjusted Gross Profit to Gross profit. Both Net income and Gross profit are the most comparable GAAP financial measure to Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Gross Profit, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.

We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information about our financial performance, enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and allow for greater transparency with respect to important metrics used by our management for financial and operational decision-making. We believe that these measures provide additional tools for investors to use in comparing our core financial performance over multiple periods with other companies in our industry. However, it is important to note that the particular items we exclude from, or include in, our non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the items excluded from, or included in, similar non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies in the same industry.

The following is a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to its most directly comparable GAAP measure, Net income:
